The Ulu WPP  is a new built wind power plant, located in Bursa Province, Turkey owned by Ulu Yenilenebilir Enerji Üretim A.Ş. The generation license of the project was issued by the Energy Market Regulatory Authority (EMRA) on 22/12/2011 for 49 years. The project has an installed capacity of 120.4 MWm/120 MWe and the annual generation is estimated to be 420,000 MWh.

As the electricity generated by the project displaces the electricity generated by Turkish National Grid, the baseline boundary is defined as the Turkish National Grid. This includes the project site and all power plants connected physically to the national grid and excludes the off-grid power plants.

The baseline scenario has been defined as the generation of the same amount of electricity by the national grid which is dominated by thermal power plants. The main emission source of electricity generation in fossil fuel fired power plants that are connected to Turkish National Grid is CO2 as in baseline scenario. Compared to that baseline scenario, the project activity has positive influences on sustainable development in Turkey.

The purpose of the Project is to produce renewable electricity using wind as the power source and to contribute to Turkey’s growing electricity demand through a sustainable and low carbon technology. The project will displace the same amount of electricity generated by the grid dominated with fossil fired power plants. The annual emission reduction estimated by the project is 272,496 tonnes of CO_2. During the crediting period, 2,724,959 tonnes of CO₂ are expected to be reduced.
